Transcript:
Upload one set of unofficial transcripts from each institution from which you received a degree of Bachelor or higher within the online application.
Official transcripts are not required for the admissions application and should not be mailed.
Curriculum Vitae:
Resume or curriculum vitae. If you don’t have a vitae, don’t worry. A resume will do. If you do have a vitae, use it instead.
Personal Statement:
Letter of intent (2-3 pages) detailing your educational and career goals. This letter should make it clear why you have chosen to enter graduate school to study communication, and why specifically in the University of Washington’s Department of Communication. You should indicate specific faculty here with whom you wish to study, and research interests you would like to pursue. You should not send a generic letter that does not pertain to the scholarly opportunities offered here in this program. State your academic goals so that the admissions committee may determine whether your goals could be met in our department. Write this letter to the best of your ability, as the admissions committee will also be reading it to discern your readiness for graduate education.
Recommendation Letter:
Three letters of recommendation Letters of recommendation from professors are strongly preferred, but if you have been out of school for many years or have another reason for using non-academic references, other professional recommendations are acceptable. These recommendations are completed online and should not be mailed. Please designate your recommenders within the online application early to allow enough time for them to submit their online recommendations no later than December 15.
Writing Sample:
Please provide a sole-authored academic writing sample, roughly 10-30 pages long, that demonstrates your research competence and your ability to produce original scholarship. This might be a thesis chapter, a journal publication, a seminar paper, or something similar. If necessary, edit your paper for length before submitting it with your application. The admissions committee will read your paper to evaluate your writing competence, the clarity of your argument, and the depth of your analysis and insight.
